I finally started creating with my MOST favorite designer paper in the 2019 Holiday Catalog…Feels Like Frost.
As I was creating, I came up with a design that shows off the full 6″ span of this pretty paper. The photo images are stunning, and I wanted to use as much of the full design as I could. So I altered a z-fold card. Typically a z-fold this size would be scored at 2-1/8″ and 4-1/4″. But I wanted less designer paper on the front panel of the card. This way when the card opens it’s even more of a beautiful surprise seeing the paper expand so much. So I moved the first score line to 1-1/2″ and I’m calling this the 3-Panel Scenery Z-Fold.
After making 24 of these cards (which I’ll be sharing tomorrow on my blog AND which you can see in the video below), I decided to see what other designer papers would work with this fun-fold. I demonstrated those cards this past Wednesday in my Facebook Live Online Paper Crafting class.
I then uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products lists below the photos, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos and products lists for the Bird Ballad and Dinoroar cards. And then tomorrow I’ll be sharing photos, measurements and a product list for the original stack of cards I made that are my absolute favorite using the Feels Like Frost Paper. By the way, the Bird Ballad and the Dinoroar Designer Papers are part of the BUY 3, GET 1 FREE promotion going on this month. But hurry, this promotion ends September 30.
